despite the fact that its the tetons; despite the fact that its the only fully functioning ecosystem in the lower 48 states; despite the fact that its the only place outside of Alaska that host every single species of animal that was there prior to 1492; despite new found friends; despite a great job; despite a future unkown; despite really good local microbreweries; despite so many nights spent playing music at a local bar and all the free shots from pretty ladies afterwards; despite so many thousands of other reasons to stay - I'm leaving. I'm coming home. Next week, I'm heading to Utah and then Arizona where - if all works out - ill be taking a hellicopter ride over the THE Canyon and then down to Havisu Falls. From Arizona (the name of a great tasting green tea and a girl I had a crush on in college) I'm coming back to North Cacalaki - you know, where I can say "y'all" and where a camo RedHead hat to bars and not get funny looks.

yay.

Regardless of where you are, I always enjoy your shots and the interesting narratives that accompany many of them. I must say though, I was really enjoying reliving my WY adventures with your recent posts!

Mark and Cindy, thanks so much. Wyoming is great, but I have to say I do believe its a place to visit for me, not to live. My heart is in the Southeast at the beach and in the Smokies.

Jared, look forward to seeing you when you get back to the Outer Banks.
